Teal and Arakku Red Handwoven Pure Silk Kanjivaram Saree with Zari Check Body and Rettapet Border

This teal and arakku red Kanjivaram is woven in the Zari Kattam tradition — fine gold zari threads intersecting across the silk body to form a luminous grid — the deep petrol teal ground and gold zari in a harvest-season pairing of warmth and festivity.

Chosen for an Atlanta Pongal celebration, this handwoven pure silk Kanjivaram pairs a deep petrol teal body with a vivid arakku red Rettapet border. The Zari Kattam structure brings fine zari threads intersecting to form a luminous grid across the teal body, with delicate small gold zari buttas within the grid squares. The arakku red border is set within a Rettapet structure — twin parallel border lines — filled with a bold procession of elephant and bird motifs in dense antique gold zari.
